That's the right email address for the `global' ELF spec, but they don't
handle processor-specific details in general.  To get changes to the
m68k flags you'll need to track down the owner of that specification,
which may be someone in Motorola at a guess.  Do you know who did the
first m68k ELF ABI spec or what machine it was for?

Note that for some specs, there effectively isn't an owner anymore.
PowerPC is one that comes to mind...
